CCDH Exam Sections

Infrastructure: Hadoop components that are outside the concerns of a particular MapReduce job that a developer needs to master (25%)Data Management: Developing, implementing, and executing commands to properly manage the full data lifecycle of a Hadoop job (30%)Job Mechanics: The processes and commands for job control and execution with an emphasis on the process rather than the data (25%)Querying: Extracting information from data (20%)

Infrastructure Objectives

Recognize and identify Apache Hadoop daemons and how they function both in data storage and processing.

Understand how Apache Hadoop exploits data locality.

Identify the role and use of both MapReduce v1 (MRv1) and MapReduce v2 (MRv2 / YARN) daemons.

Given a MapReduce job, determine the lifecycle of a Mapper and the lifecycle of a Reducer.

Analyze and determine the relationship of input keys to output keys in terms of both type and number, the sorting of keys, and the sorting of values.

Given sample input data, identify the number, type, and value of emitted keys and values from the Mappers as well as the emitted data from each Reducer and the number and contents of the output file(s).

Understand implementation and limitations and strategies for joining datasets in MapReduce.

Understand how partitioners and combiners function, and recognize appropriate use cases for each.

Recognize the processes and role of the the sort and shuffle process.

Understand common key and value types in the MapReduce framework and the interfaces they implement.

Use key and value types to write functional MapReduce jobs.

Job Mechanics Objectives

Construct proper job configuration parameters and the commands used in job submission.

Analyze a MapReduce job and determine how input and output data paths are handled.

Given a sample job, analyze and determine the correct InputFormat and OutputFormat to select based on job requirements.

Analyze the order of operations in a MapReduce job.

Understand the role of the RecordReader, and of sequence files and compression.
